Frank Delaney's Re: Joyce Frank Delaney ReJOYCE! To commemorate James Joyce's mighty novel, Ulysses, we're launching a podcast. Every week you'll find a five-minute mini-essay from me designed to take you through the novel that's on every list of the greatest books ever written. And as Ulysses runs to some 375,000 words, and I mean to go through it sentence by sentence if I have to, in order to convey the full brilliance of this novel - and the enjoyment to be had from it - I'll be podcasting for some time to come! It's such an absorbing book, it's got diamond mines of references, it's so compassionate, so tender, so moving, so funny - and most of us never know that, because most of us have long been daunted by it. No need to be afraid any more - that is, if you make a habit of listening to these podcasts. Ulysses - James Joyce RTÉ Radio 1 James Joyce's 'Ulysses' is one of the most important works of modernist literature.

In 1982 RTÉ Radio celebrated the centenary of Joyce's birth with a dramatised full production of 'Ulysses'; this broadcast is now considered one of the definitive adaptations of the book. See RTE.ie/ulysses for more. Ulysses by James Joyce Lina James Joyce’s *Ulysses* follows Leopold Bloom as he moves through Dublin during a single day—June 16, 1904. His ordinary activities, encounters, memories, and private thoughts gradually form an extraordinary portrait of human consciousness. Running alongside Bloom’s journey is the story of Stephen Dedalus, a young writer searching for direction, independence, and a sense of belonging. Their paths eventually meet, creating one of modern literature’s most memorable relationships. Inspired by Homer’s *Odyssey*, the novel transforms Dublin into a modern landscape of wandering, temptation, loss, and homecoming. Joyce experiments with language, perspective, humor, symbolism, and stream-of-consciousness narration, allowing listeners to experience the characters’ thoughts as they unfold. This unabridged audiobook brings greater rhythm and clarity to a famously challenging work. Through its changing voices, emotional contrasts, and vivid urban atmosphere, *Ulysses* becomes not only a
